The audience in Steinway hail was slim

platform yesterday afternoon to talk OF the
ideal dress of the future. II Mrs Miller wore
the ideal dress she did not say so, nor could
the ordinary untutored man discern it. 1t
was very elaborate conception, apparent y
of black silk velvet, profusely trimmed IN
front with white lace. The sleeves were long.
tight and covered with pufings. A broad
black band encircled tho neck, and an i'm
menss corsage bouquet served to hide the de
tails Of the waist. Mrs. Miller spoke easily
and gesticulated gracefully. The first half OF
her lecture was a denunciahon OF modern
female attire. She characterized it as I'm
graceful. unhealthful and inconvenient. Her
especial aversion was corsets, bustles, petu-
coats and i'll shaped tight shoes
Man clothes HIMSELF she said, with
view to comfort, woman only for show
She protested that she did not desire woman

Heron-Allen's Impressions,

My impressions of America now that for
the first time l endeavor to express them to
myself without having to wrestle in my mind
with the premeditated verbiage of expert
mental politeness, are practically three. First
of all, what strikes me principally las a rep
resentative of hereditary descent of what is
perhaps the most bigoted Tory and royalist
set in England is the absence of a class from
whose decision in matters social and ethical
there is absolutely no appeal. Secondly, that
the resultant the only result-of the non
existence of classes in the United States is
that the lines of demarkation existing between
those classes being invisible are enormously
strongly traced, in fact, make up in quantity
what they lack in quality IA paradox, may be,
which would be dear to the heart of Oscar
Wilde and rejoice the ears Of Edgar Saltus) !;
and, thirdly, the colossal prosperity of the
country, of which one sees evidences on all
sides at every moment, seems due to what
might be called the lavish waste of material
both physical and psychological which one
sees in every department of life-Ed. Heron

The Society of Volapuk.

E The French society of Volapuk, an associa-
ton of people who believe that they can cre-
ate a universal commercial language, recently
held banquet in Paris, and many Russian

guests. At the dessert the president drank
to the health of the future language, which
was rather singular proceeding, and men,

zone humanity, one language" or in Vola-
puk, "Menad, bal, puk bal" The perpetra-
ton Of photographic horrors which may be
expected when this new language has won
sway may be gathered from this extract from

The time is at hand when house cleaning,

from the walls end the holes they leave closed
up Have gilt or plain wooden molding
put up all around the room, four or five
inches or more from the ceiling. II the wall
is painted. paint the molding darker or a
contrasting tint. If it is papered, paint the
molding the color of the bordering, which
should ELL the space between the molding and
the ceiling.
The woodwork in the room should be The
same tint as the molding. From this mold.

little fixtures that come for the purpose Use

If desirable. Plain wooden molding cost
only two cents foot. gilt costs seven OF

have holdings put up In all the rooms and
thus anticipate the temptation to mar thu

Musin Surprises q Rustic Fiddler.

While travelling through Nebraska, Musin,
the virtuoso, lounged into the smoking car,
to kill few of the heavy moments incident
to journey across the plains. He found a
raw countryman scraping a polka off the
strings of fiddle. He played with the proud
consciousness Of man who is master of his
art
"Let me play you something" said Mu.in.
Without word the fiddler handed the
virtuoso his instrument Putting the thing
into at least suggestion of tune, Musin
played touching cavatina, and then the
Carnival of Venice" as arranged by Paga-
mini.
The player of polkas and square dance
music opened his mouth and absorbed every
note. When Musin had finished he handed
the fiddle to its spellbound owner The
countryman shook his head. The brilliant
notes.of the Carnival" We're still chasing each
other in mad dance through his head.

TELL TALE BOOKS DESTROYED.

Hotel Registers are Burned Now by All
the Big Houses in the Country.
9What becomes Of all the old hotel regis
tersqD asked the reporter of the clerk OF a
fashionable uptown house. The clerk had
Just opened new travellers autograph album
with the date inscribed with a mighty
flourish, and was casting the old one into
corner He welcomed the first new arrival on
the new book, gave him the coolest room In
the house, blew up two bell boys for lighting
in the hall. quieted guest who was kicking
for more blankets on his bed and said:
GThat,s like the Fourteenth century cues
ton about what becomes Of all the pins. We
don't keep them We won't let any one else
keep ,ern if we know it. Hotel registers are
as carefully destroyed as if they were dyna-
mite cartridges that may blow the house up
at any moment. We cut the backs out and
sell them to bookbinders The leaves we
either burn ourselves or sell them to some
one whom we know will grind them up into
paper stock at once and without saving q
page. Why are we so particular about that9
Because every time there is big divorce suit
some hotel register is called upon to bear
witness to something unpleasant, and we are
tired of it. The last divorce suit in which
this house was innocently mixed up took
every old register we had and most OF the
clerks and bell boys to court, and interfered
so much with business that it was hard work
for guest to rake up anybody about the
house to wait on him. A man had registered
here under eleven different names, and they
tried to make us identify him under every
name. 1t was an awful nuisance and didn't
do the house any good, either"
"Don't you make any exceptions to your
rules"
"Oh, well, if one of those autograph fends
can convince us that he is not hunting up evil
dence Of some kind, but only wants to paw
around for some great mans signature, we
let him 20 through the book before it is de-
stroyed. But it is seldom that we grant the
privilege We have to refuse a great many
importunate people. too. There was an ex-
cited man from Boston here not long ago,
who wouldn't believe that we didn't have the
registers and offered $1,000 for one. He
thought he had discovered that his wife had
been here when she was supposed to have
been visiting her aunt in some country town
in Massachusetts,. If he had offered S50,0 200
he couldn't have got that register, because it
was half way through the paper mill by that
time Besides the possibility of annoyance
from the courts, the keeping of registers
used to make trouble because they took up SO
much room. A first class hotel in New York
CITY will use from six to dozen registers a
year, and in q few years they would have q
store room full of them. See!"-New York

Or at the close OF every evening, when all the DAY

Draw up thy little table close to the fire and
write,
Write to me soon in the morning, write to me late
